Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1–10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate "subscores" in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an accommodation that you booked through our platform if you stayed there, or if you got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize in detecting fake reviews submitted to our platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomThe shower was not brilliant as the shower head needed attention due to the connection was wearing out, It has been reported also there was no instructions for the coffee machine which would have been useful and some of the coffee pods had been used but was not a major issue for us as we were only there for 2 nights .

Czech RepublicThe breakfast was nice if you like to eat just English breakfast and every day the same. I missed some fresh fruit or some pastry different than just a toast. Since we stayed more nights in a row it would be nice if the breakfast wasn´t 100% the same every day. But overall it was totally ok :)
The hotel is at a good location - very short walking distance to the city centre, to shops, restaurants and to a park. The staff was very friendly and we also used the offered luggage storage and parking (quite a lot of space for parking and we didn´t have to pay extra for parking which was great). Our room was not special but nice and clean - good value for the price.

United KingdomSeem to be short staffed, breakfast was 0730am and is buffet style however fried eggs didn't get put out until 0745am one morning, had to miss out as needed to leave for work. Also went to get a drink after going out for a meal but no-one available to serve at the bar, some chap rushed passed stating he was busy and us and other guest's needed to wait. We didn't bother and went across road to another pub.
Lovely big room, bed comfortable however room very warm.

AustraliaOur room was on the 2nd floor with quite a few steps here and there. We didn’t expect a lift due the the age of the building but it’s still a challenge with luggage. A mini fridge would have been good
It’s a charming building. Our room was clean, warm and comfortable. Great location. Great breakfast with very helpful staff
